Review: Huge upgrade on Netgear system - So I swapped out a troublesome Netgear Mesh system I had been fighting with for 2 years with limited success, dropped satellite connections, constant reboots etc. So, I bought this ASUS XT9 system in the hope I would get some peace. Let me tell you it’s a whole new world. Setting up was an absolute doddle, the router and satellite connected first time and have stayed connected, my WiFi speeds are incredible even in my garden, the app is intuitive and very useful giving me feedback on just about everything I need to know. Honestly I can’t recommend this enough and will never touch anything Netgear makes ever again
Review: Good solid router - I'm reviewing this after long term ownership. It was a good upgrade to my older Netgear Nighthawk. The ASUS wifi router is reasonably easy to set up and manage, it really gives excellent whole home coverage, and it's extremely stable. I rebooted it only once in the long time I have had this setup. Recommended.

## Features

- Easy Management – The ASUS Router app with its intuitive interface makes managing your mesh WiFi system simple right from your smartphone

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how does this work with bt ultimate fast 2**
A: 1. You have to connect this with BT Hub via ethernet cable.  Disable BT wifi from the BT router. Use ASUS Wifi 2. I have BT FTTP connection which comes with a modem and BT hub. Fibre is connected to modem and then the modem is connected to BT Hub.  What I have done is: removed BT Hub for unnecessary wifi congestion. I have connected ASUS directly to the Fibre modem. From ASUS, the connection method I have chosen is PPoE . I hope it is clear now.

**Q: does it work with Virgin fibre?**
A: Yes it does, you put the virgin hub into bridge mode (the light on the front of the virgin hub goes Purple)- then use the Asus unit to manage wifi and IP etc. It's very easy to set up, and manage. You can use either the app, or login to a browser to do more detailed configuration. Plug in the ethernet cable into the WAN on the Virgin hub (port 1) into the WAN port port on the Asus unit. The reboot the virgin hub, and then power on the Asus unit. jo done. Point to note, should you lose connectivity to the virgin (As in the recent outages), there is no need to reset the Asus unit, it'll pick up the refreshed gateway IP from the virgin hub automatically.

**Q: I have bt fttp and bt sport.   does this setup support bt sport on the bt\humax youview box?**
A: I have FTTP with BT. The fibre comes into the house into the Openreach modem. All you need to do is remove your old router (which is connected to the modem), and connect one of the Asus routers directly to the modem in its place. This then acts as the master modem, the other Asus router acts as a mesh node. It is easier to use the phone app to set it up.

**Q: What does ‘pack of 1’ mean?  1 ‘pair’ or a single node?**
A: A single node. A pair is around £400

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great - but Important lessons learned
*by A***Y on 20 June 2025*

After a frustrating time setting up it now works perfectly. Thought I would share the lessons learned in order to avoid others going through the same stress : First of all, the scenario I had was upgrading my existing sky hub with Q and mini Q boxes. I’m sure many others would have a similar scenario. 1) People advised replacing the existing wi fi network SID name with exactly the same one and same password . But this failed to take into account the following massive issue this caused : On connecting to the new routers following set up, I had no idea if it was connecting to the old network (which was still active) or the new network. My phone inadvertently connected directly to the sky box and gave me all sorts of misleading set up errors from the ASUS app! Almost threw the router out the window until I realised what was happening: Solution: set up the ASUS with a different network SID temporarily- as then you know exactly what you are connecting to. 2) the first time I got the ASUS boxes to work - there was no internet access at all. Later on I got it to work but speed was terrible (using usual broadband speed test apps). Note - each of the issues above was resolved by rebooting A) my Sky router B) the master ASUS and C) the ASUS slave - in that order . If still issues just rebooted one or all again. 3) once ASUS mesh works at top speed - then via the sky router admin, disable wi fi access points on both frequencies . 4) finally, rename the new ASUS network back to your original network name . 5) via sky Q box menus (on each box), reset up the wi fi to connect to your new (3rd party) network. After this, I get full 150MBS in all my rooms ! Which is the speed of the line itself . World class , once resolved the pain above. Hope this helps others. *Update after 1 month - requires rebooting about once a week as they cut out. Downgrading to 4 stars*
